..41% strain) for the following values: spatial resolution = 0.05 x 0.05 mm2; tag line spacing = 2.0 mm; control points = 6. With these results the technique can now be used in various applications while minimizing error...

..These findings demonstrate that the low friction of articular cartilage can be modified by TGF-beta1 and IL-1beta treatment and that the friction coefficient depends on multiple factors, including SZP localization and surface roughness...

..Knowledge of these nonuniform strains is critical for the in situ characterization of normal and diseased tissue, as well as the comprehensive evaluation of repair constructs designed using regenerative medicine...
